iMac 30"

[smilinmonki666]

Will there ever be one, if so would you buy it & why?

I would buy it as I will eventually use it for photo editing & always have multiple apps open, I know that there is the "spaces" option, but a bigger screen always helps...

 

[Westsider 4 Mac]

still would ...

... depend on the specs...

 

[BlakTornado]

I find my 20" big enough.

 

[PlaceofDis]

i certainly wouldn't be able to afford it, but i'd wan it, yes.

If they made the case thicker to handle a two removable double wide desktop GPU's and made the 2x9800GX2 SLI optional. Oh and use a desktop CPU so I could have a Quad core. Plus make the screen removable.

Heck with it headless iMac.

 

[bigjnyc]

I would definitely buy it, especially if they bump up all the specs and make it the imac pro

i'll have it under two conditions:-
1_ Graphic card must be extremely powerful and upgradable
2_ Vesa mount is available (i mean hanging the imac into the wall just like an LCD monitor) so that it doesn't take much space in my desk

if these options are available then i'm in!!

I'd actually rather have a 27 inch iMac, but I'd be thrilled with a 30 inch.

I don't see the point. I would not want one, but I see a high demand for one. So I do think Apple should make one. But for me I see no use for one. But I want a Mac Pro. I know they can't make an iMac with the same specs....

Would require a far more powerful graphics option, 4GB ram standard Quad core and interchangable graphics.

No need IMO, 24" is plenty big enough.

You already can do that.

You already can do that.

Really, how? I would love to do that to my 20".

Too big for my desk. Plus, if i could afford it/had space I'd go with 2*23" ACDs

That would be the point. To get my 20" iMac off the desk and onto the wall. When I get my new desk and a Mac Pro. I plain to get two 23" also.



But the more I thought about it. I think the 30" is very stupid. For the price that it would probably start at. I would rather purchase a Mac Pro with a 23" or save for a 30". I bet it would not be that much more either. I think if Apple was to release a 30" it would be more wise to release an "Xmac".

Something like this:
Mid Tower Case
Single Intel Quad Core
Support for up to two GPU's or one if the GPU is Huge
Support up to 8 Gigs of Ram
Room for three Hard Drives

You get the point.

Sad thing is, its only for the 24" model, sorry dude

can you tell me how to do it with my 24 inch imac?

You need a $30 adapter kit - search the Apple Store for VESA. As for the poll, I wouldn't get one for the same reason I didn't get a 30" ACD - not enough room for it on my desk
Having said that, if it was a proper "media center" system with a TV tuner and video recording together with front row, I could see some benefit as a TV / Computer combination
